TOO AWFULLY so.

The meetings recently held in
New York at which the Georgian
Trinity posed before admiring audi
ences, have given rise to style Of
newspaper reports that are excruci-
atingly sentimental. You may pick
up a daily paper or Georges paper,
and the sum and substance of feryid
ovation is; applause" great ap-
plause," "prolonged applause, B"
"wild applause" ''long and con-
tinued applause, "the audience rose
to its feet to cheer the more vigor-
ously," etc, etc. And now we find
the New York Lealcr following the
same style. But New Workers are
great folks-they seem to live on
excitement.

the slaves they helped to free. The
miserable capitalistic politicians sim
ply use the cloak Of charity to pla'
cate the most ignorant of them and
secure their further services in the
interest of the Office seekers. The
old soldiers are for the most part
workingmcn who should disdain
charity from such hands, and de-
mand their right to life in the only
way such a demand may be honor
ably made-by voting with the Party
of Labor for the abolition of wage
slavery,
True soldiers should shrink from
begging for charity, end they should
feel insulted by the demagognes who
offer it.

VETERANS OF LABOR.

The Cincinnati Zeitang said it
hoped that the time would come
when the veterans CT labor should be
honored the same as veteran soldiers.
To this the "republican' Commercial
Gazette objected as "blatant insult
to the soldiers" But the ZeitHnQ
very properly rctorts:
1--WE must tell the Gazette what vet
eran of labor is. Not a political worker,
not labor candidate, not one who pro
fesses the politics of labor, but all per
sons, men or women, who have their life
long, with useful labor supporting them
selves and contributed to the support of
Others, until age and work has rendered
them cripples and unfit for work. To
these supporters of all mankind in peace
and war Qor the wealthy drones stay at
home and buy substitutes, to those peo-
pie who form the bone and sinew of our
nation, to those heroes of labor there is
nothing left in old age but to die along
the road side as vagabonds, or the way
DER the hills to the Poorhouse, and the
paupers' disgrace"
And the ZeitHng is right. There
is too much ado about the mer
whose yalor assisted in times of war
but who, when they return to peace
full ayocations are treated worse thar
